Department of Agriculture for canning vegetables, meats, poultry, and seafood. Doubles as a boiling water Canner for preserving fruits, jams, jellies, pickles, and salsa in half-pint and pint jars. Works on gas, electric, and smooth-top ranges. Deluxe pressure dial gauge registers precise processing pressures, which is especially important in high altitude areas. Special air vent/cover lock allows pressure to build only when the cover is closed properly and prevents the cover from being opened until pressure is safely reduced.

The USDA recommends pressure canning as the only safe method for low-acid foods such as vegetables, meats, and poultry. The Presto 16-quart pressure canner is more than adequate for any home canning needs. It's a professional-quality tool, made of heavy-duty aluminum, with stay-cool handles and a strong-lock steel lid. An accompanying rack fits down into the pot to keep jars up off the bottom, so that liquid can circulate underneath. And it can do double duty as a large pressure cooker. It's easy to cook healthfully with pressure cookers, since the food retains so much more of its nutrients and flavor.

The sturdy lid locks down during canning or cooking; an inner sealing ring keeps the steam in. In addition to a pop-up pressure indicator and a simple steam-release mechanism, there is an overpressure plug that will let off steam if it builds up excessively. The pressure dial gauge gives an accurate reading so that pressure can be kept constant during canning. This pressure canner is also a cooker that's useful for weeknight dinners or for any meal that needs to come together quickly. An accompanying booklet contains more than 50 recipes, ranging from basic soup stocks to stews and pot roasts--even sweets like English Plum Pudding and Brown Bread. Tenderize lean cuts of beef or pork, or cook chicken, fish, or vegetables faster than you can in a microwave, and without losing moisture.

Nonabrasive cleansers are best for cleaning this aluminum pressure cooker, though occasional use of a fine metal polish will help the exterior keep its shine. The lid of the Presto 16-quart pressure canner is not immersible. In addition, the sealing ring should be removed after each use to allow cleaning of the inside rim of the lid. The dial gauge is delicate; detailed care instructions are found in the accompanying booklet. The vent pipe is simple to keep clean with a small brush or pipe cleaner, and both the air vent/cover lock and the overpressure plug are removable. The pressure cooker measures approximately 14-4/5 by 14-4/5 by 12 inches and carries a 12-year limited warranty. A detailed instruction and recipe booklet is included; special safety issues that pertain to pressure cookers are clearly explained. --Garland Withers

User questions & answers

Question:	Does the regulator is set at 15 pound? Why do some people buy the extra weight
Answer:	All stainless with a thick stainless sandwich on the bottom to conduct heat more evenly than a thin bottom.
Question:	Does this canner come with a rack in the box
Answer:	They now have one available at 8 quarts.
Question:	does it come with the weighted guage
Answer:	No, it's not that good. See my review. Back in 2014 it may have been, but in 2018 it is not.
Question:	I read one review that says the 16 quart cooker does not work with quart jars. We use quart jars only so I would like confirmation? Thanks
Answer:	I love mine, the T-fal P2510737 unit. This unit is really only for pressure cooking, NOT pressure canning. The new types are so much easier than the old ones that could overpressurize. One thing that is really important, let the unit vent steam for several minutes before closing it to make sure you get a good seal. The instructions were not a clear on that but i knew to do it from pressure canning.

User questions & answers

Question:	How can I remove the sticker glue residue
Answer:	If you put peanut butter on any glue it will remove it. Even on windows that have the paper glue on stickers. Put it on and let it set for about 10 minutes and wipe it off. Clean the area with vinegar or window cleaner. Zap and it's gone.
Question:	Is this made in America
Answer:	The product carton says "made in China". However, it has a 5 year guaranteed warranty. I have used it 3 years and am very pleased with its quality. I have three other kitchen items made my Victorio which are several years old, and have held up very well. "www.victorio.info" gives more on products and company history. There is also an Email address: [email protected].
Question:	Can this be used for green beans? Is it a pressure canner or not
Answer:	It's OK to water-bath can green-bean PICKLES, but NEVER, ever use it to do just plain canned green beans. Or ANY vegetable. Grandma's recipes are often not at all safe. Check with your Cooperative Extension for your state (here it's Cornell, you can check those too) to get good safety guidelines. If you mess up with vegetables, which are not acidic . . . you risk botulism. Quite frankly, I would not use this for tomatoes either. Invest in a pressure canner!
Question:	What are the dimensions of this canner
Answer:	This canner is 11.5 inches across the base. Inside height is 9", not including the lid. The National Center for Home Canning (University of Georgia) states the canner bottom should not exceed the diameter of the burner by more than 2"; they offer an excellent book "So Easy to Preserve" with tested recipes and methods for safe home canning. Jar capacity depends on the size of jars (1/2 pint, pint and quarts). I've used this canner to process jams and pickles - the only complaint I have is when processing quarts the lid allows boiling hot water to "spit" out around the lid. Last night I had to constantly monitor and soak up hot water that landed on the kitchen floor and range top. Since I have a glass top range I inspected the canner thoroughly upon arrival, feeling the bottom for any imperfections - I felt a tiny "burr" which I managed to rub out using fine emery cloth.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the canner magnetic? Is it rated to work with induction stoves
Answer:	If it's magnetic, then it's NOT 18/10 stainless, as the description claims. According to metallurgists, only lesser grades of stainless are magnetic, due to the percentage of chromium,nickel, and molybdenum that makes up 18/10 Stainless Steel.
Question:	Where can I purchase a replacement glass lid
Answer:	6 months ago I contacted Ball to get a replacement lid- they were great over the phone/email stating they would immediately shop me a replacement lid at NO COST. Sadly 6 emails/phone calls later still no lid and no response - I gave up unfortunately.
Question:	Is the canner deep enough not to boil over
Answer:	If you are using half-pints & pints it will not boil over; however, with quarts it will bubble over slightly if you keep it at a hard rolling boil. Other than that I love this canner, just with the rack was of the same quality as the canner :)
Question:	CAN BE USED ON GLASS TOP STOVES
Answer:	Yes, I use mine on a glass top stove. You just have to be careful about the weight of the canner, so it doesn't crack the glass. Set it down gently, don't drop it or move it roughly.

Product description

The Prepworks by Progressive 3-piece Canning Set includes a one-handed jar lifter, a magnetic lid lifter and a canning funnel. The one-handed jar lifter provides a steady and secure grip to allow one-handed lifting of canning jar out of boiling water. The spring loaded curved handle allows for easy emptying of jars during sterilization and is much safer to use than other brands. It measures 10-1/2-inch long and is made from high heat TPE. This jar lifter won't stain and is dishwasher safe. The magnetic lid lifter allows the placement of lids on jars while minimizing hand contact, providing a more sterile environment. Grab the lid directly from simmering water and easily disengage the magnet by tilting lifter away from lid. The use never needs to touch lid, again providing a more sterile environment. The jar lifter measures 9-3/4-inch long, is dishwasher safe and will not stain when using. The canning funnel fits wide and regular mouth canning jars and is designed with a double wall. The outside part of the funnel sits on the counter and the inside is shorter and sits over jar, helping to keep the canning area cleaner. It features headspace measurements for precise filling, and necessary air space for proper sealing of canned goods. The funnel measures 5.13-inch diameter by 3-1/4-inch high and is made with high heat polypropylene, preventing stains. It is dishwasher safe.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this fit on a quart size mason jar
Answer:	How do you know the size of a pressure cooker ring? The recommended way of finding pressure cooker sealing ring sizes is to look at the manual it came with. In it, it will detail the sizes and the one you need. If it doesn’t, make sure you know the model name and size you have in terms of quarts. This will be enough information to track down the size you need. If you don't have a manual look it up on the internet for your model . Hope this helps
Question:	Is this BPA free
Answer:	All parts are model specific. If you need assistance determining which sealing ring you will need to purchase for your pressure cooker or canner, please contact Presto Customer Service Department Monday-Friday 8:00-4:15 Central Time by phone (1-800-877-0441) or e-mail ([email protected]).
Question:	How many inches is the smaller end of the funnel
Answer:	If you have a Presto 7B, the correct sealing ring you will need is 09907. If you have any questions, please contact Presto Customer Service Monday-Friday 8:00-4:15 Central Time by phone (1-800-877-0441) or e-mail ([email protected]).
Question:	Can I use this rack to process 4 ounce jars of jam? My current rack allowed the little jars to slip through the openings on the side of the rack
Answer:	The Presto 09985 sealing ring will fit the Presto 01781 canner. If you have any questions, please contact Presto Customer Service Monday-Friday 8:00-4:15 Central Time by phone (1-800-877-0441) or e-mail ([email protected]).

User questions & answers

Question:	how pressure is regulated
Answer:	I am not 100% sure, but I think they are made in Wisconsin, USA. Hope this helps. Suz
Question:	Can this canner be safely used on a glass-surface range? If so, what is the smallest burner on which it can be safely used
Answer:	There was a time when canning using pressure cookers was deemed a safe method of preserving. However, since 2006 Presto has not provided information for canning in pressure cookers. The information used to support canning in pressure cookers was based on research done in the late 1970's. The current recommendation from the United States Department of Agriculture indicates that to pressure can you will need to use a vessel that is specially a pressure canner, which holds at minimum four quart-size jars. Note that pressure canners are generally 12-quart size or larger.

Question:	How many qt jars can be canned in this pressusre canner
Answer:	Respectfully, any time I've ever had problems over the decades with beans not cooking evenly it was invariably due to a batch of mixed old AND new beans. This happens more than you might think, and unfortunately a recent purchase of mine of small red beans in 25 lb. bulk are proving to be exactly that. Soaking an extra couple of hours seems to help a little (10 hours instead of 8) and then bringing to full heat and pressure a little more slowly, then pressure cooking one extra minute than you normally would. All those things together will help when old and new beans have been mixed together.

Product description

T fal Pressure Canner, Pressure Cooker with 2 Racks and 3 PSI Settings, 22 Quart, Silver, Model 931052. With its roomy 22 quart capacity, this T fal polished aluminum pressure cooker and canner offers exceptional convenience in the kitchen. By combining heat, steam, and pressure, it efficiently cooks a wide range of healthy, delicious, home cooked meals in a fraction of the time up to 70 percent faster than conventional cooking methods, without losing essential nutrients or flavor. Cook for a crowd, create large batches for make ahead meals, or capture summer's bounty for enjoyment year round by canning fruits and vegetables. When canning, the cookware can hold 16 pint size jars, 26 half pint size jars (when double stacked) or 7 quart size jars at a time. The stovetop cookware's heavy gauge aluminum construction heats quickly and offers rustproof performance for long lasting use. Choose from three cooking pressure options 5, 10, or 15 PSI. The cooker's selective pressure control maintains a steady internal pressure, while its vent tube in the center of the lid allows for proper steam release. For added safety, the cookware's backup steam release components include a reusable overpressure plug (the red pin in center pushes out, releasing steam), and if more release is needed, the cookware's gasket release window will push out from the lid opening. In addition, a spring safety device prevents the pressurization of the cooker before being securely closed, and a sure locking lid system prevents opening the lid when the cooker is pressurized. A cooking rack comes included to prevent food from sticking to bottom and to raise jars up off bottom, along with a user guide with recipes for getting started. The T fal 22 quart polished aluminum pressure cooker and canner makes a great choice for novice and experienced cooks and canners alike.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the entire unit stainless including the inside
Answer:	there is a gauge in middle along with a button (in front on picture) when the steams starts coming out of the hole where the weight goes (the black piece next to gauge) you time it for 10 mins. then put the weight on and the pressure starts to build up. Once the pressure gauge reads 10 you lower heat on stove to keep the pressure steady at 10 then start to time (usually anywhere from 10-45 mins). When you are done turn heat off and wait until the gauge is at 0 and the front button goes down. Then slowly twist lid and remove by lifting the cover (tilting the back side first so steam doesn't burn your face).
Question:	Does it come in 8-quart size? I love this pressure cooker but 6.3-Q is small for our family
Answer:	The issue people have with using large vessels on glass top ranges is that if the vessel is larger than the burner ring, it could transfer heat past the area where the glass has been properly tempered for high heat (outside of the burner ring). This could cause a failure in the glass top surface. I would check with your range mfg as well as inly cook in a burner that is the same diameter as the vessel you're using.
Question:	Wow,.only 1 bad 1 star review. Is this that good? the Fagor which is highly recommended by Americas test kitchen has lots of 1 star reviews
Answer:	I would not put in more than 9 regular mouth pint jars per level, for a total of 18 jars. When you put in 10/level the jars get wedged in and there's a risk of jars cracking, based on my experience. I've been canning for 50+ years and am on my third 23-quart pressure canner just my opinion.
Question:	I'm debating whether this one or T-fal P4500734 Clipso Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker... Any opinion
Answer:	7 quarts jars. 10 regular mouth pints jars. I currently today have 20 pints of pork canning (i have an additional metal plate like the one that goes on the bottom ) 10 pints on the bottom and 10 on the top rack. You can not double stack quarts. This is the best canner I have owned

Cooking Times Are Reduced By Up To 70 Percent And It's Safe!

The stovetop canner’s heavy gauge aluminum construction heats quickly and offers rustproof performance for long-lasting use. The cooker’s selective pressure control maintains a steady internal pressure, while its vent tube on the lid allows for proper steam release. For added safety, the cooker’s backup steam release components include a reusable overpressure plug (the red pin in center pushes out, releasing steam), and if more release is needed, the gasket-release window will push out from the lid opening. In addition, a spring safety device prevents the pressurization of the cooker before being securely closed, and a sure-locking lid system prevents opening the lid when the cooker is pressurized.

Pressure Gauge Dial

Deluxe pressure gauge dial for easy pressure monitoring.

3-PSI Settings

Selective pressure control with 3 cooking-pressure options: 5 PSI for vegetables and other delicate foods, 10 PSI for meats or 15 PSI for canning.

Two Cooking Racks

Two cooking racks are included to maximize canning space and to prevent food from sticking to bottom.

UL Certified

Underwriters Laboratories Inc certified product for safety cooking.

Answer:	Yes, I canned apple pie filling & this funnel is wonderful! Fits quarts & pints, large or small mouth. I love it!
Question:	Does this work on induction stoves? If a magnet sticks to the bottom it will work

Product description

The Granite Ware 20-Quart Pressure Cooker is a professional-quality tool, made of heavy-duty anodized aluminum, with stay-cool handles and a  strong-lock steel lid. The hard anodized finish is ultra-durable and means this can be used as a pressure cooker or steamer without changing the flavor or color of food. An accompanying rack fits down into the pot to keep jars up off the bottom so that liquid can circulate underneath. In addition to a pop-up pressure indicator and a simple steam release mechanism, pressure canner has controls of internal pressure, which eliminates the need for constant monitoring and calibrating a pressure gauge. The Granite Ware 20-Quart Pressure Cooker pressure dial gauge gives an accurate reading so that pressure can be  kept constant during canning.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you use this for water bath canning
Answer:	I have used this canner for water bath jam and it works great. Though it would be nice if it came with a separate lid for that- I was able to find a separate glass lid that did the trick. You could use the lid it comes with without latching (as a cover only), however I used to own one with a glass lid and I liked that feature. It’s just a personal preference though and won’t effect the end result.
Question:	Can you use this one on a glass top stove
Answer:	Not recommended
Question:	Will a half gallon jar fit in the canner
Answer:	Yes
Question:	Can this be used on a gas stovetop
Answer:	yes most definitely!
